Ya sorry my route info is a bit off I guess...my apologizes...That is a busy area under the bridge now for running open so that makes sense to cap speed. Where is a good spot to watch WOT? I'll either go there or I'll be right under the bridge...WAVE AT THE BAJA!

Beach, My cottage is in Rockport and I believe they come back around 3pm but not totally sure..you best bet would be to be there for 1pm and just float around / swim!

BTW...a bunch of us non-runners are going to go over to lake of the isle after they come back....if anyone is interested, look for the floatila in the bay.

Since my wife and I will be boatless as ours is here in Vegas, can anyone help with a good place to watch from shore? Is there a list of boats doing the kilo run?

The best place from shore to watch the kilo run would be in a boat on the water! If I was taking the Baja up you could come with us but Were not gonna make the trip this time..but I'm sure someone would have extra room on their non-running boat...You won't see to much from land b/c it will be packed!

That would be ideal I would totally pitch in for gas, and buy food and drinks for all on board if there were a couple spots on a boat open.

If anyone has a couple spots let me know and we can figure out the logistics.

The best place to catch everybody moving quickly is either just before the end of the 40 acres, maybe 3/4's of the way down from Kingston, or just before Crossover Island, right around Singer Castle.
If I was going to do it from land, I would watch the start from the breakwall in Kingston, then drive down to Brockville to see all the boats at the lunch stop, catch the 2 full class starts, then wait for the boats to come back from Prescott.

1: Truck and trailer is fine at the launch

2: I would guess around 3p.m.

3: Your poker run entry will reserve you a dock

Any questions just give me a call. Can you make Oneida this weekend?

I leave my truck and trailer there every year. Small fee.

I hope to be at Keewaydin around 11ish. If you are going to be there around that time you can head over with us.
